Sister and Brother!!!

Ella seems to be adjusting (so far) to having Easton around. I am sure she is confused so very much! She is so sweet with him!
Look at those pretty blue eyes!

Once there was a snowman.....


Easton sporting his snowman jammies from his Grandma Pond! They are so cute on him!He has changed so much already!




The back of the jammies are so cute!


He is just like Ella when she was a newborn, he has to constantly have his hands close to his face!



The flowers Andrew got me while I was in the hospital! They get prettier by the day!




Ella's One Year Pictures!!


My friend Savannah did some pictures for me for Ella's first birthday! I could tell she had turned one it was like a switch in her went off to not hold still for pictures anymore, but she was able to get some really good ones of her! I can't pick just one or five apparently I love them all! Here are just a few!

I love this collage she did of all her facial expressions she is such a funny girl!

These pictures make me miss Ella so much! I put her on the plane with my mom yesterday! We can't wait to see her in just over a week! I don't know who I miss more my mom or Ella! Probably both just in different ways!



She had learned how to get off of the chair by the end as she is demonstrating here!













I love her blue eyes in this one!

























Ella and Easton


My Mom brought Ella to the hospital a few times to see me! She got a few pictures of the two of them together!

She is not to sure yet! She is probably so confused!

She keeps wanting to touch his nose! It is so funny! At least it isn't his eyes although I am sure we will get to that point soon!





When famiy comes to town!


While my family was here we did lots of fun things! I will have to get the rest of the pictures from them when we go to Utah!
One day we went out to the Riverpark in Tunica to see the Mississippi River! The weather was perfect, almost 70*, which was much better from home that day where it was like 10* or something like that! They came at the perfect time when our weather was perfect!



Brent and Andrew! I love this picture they are inseparable when they are together!



Sunday after church we drove out to Lake Arkabutla to see all the pretty leaves! There were still a few but for the most part all of them had fallen!






Our last picture of us as a family of 3!




Group shot! My legs and feet were so swollen by this point they look awful!

Ella is learning to give kisses! She is so sweet!



We did lots more fun things like shopping on Black Friday, more shopping the next day, eating some yummy barbeque and crepes and catfish, Andrew practicing for a practical he had by dialating Brent and Katy's eyes, playing games, talking, laughing, and enjoying one anothers company! We also had an awesome Thanksgiving! It went by so fast I am so sad they are all gone now!

First Bubble Bath!!!

For her birthday we gave Ella some bubble bath (cheap fun gift!) We thought she would love it, she screamed when I put her in at first until dad came in the room and then all was right again! She decided that she really liked it and has had a few more since and loves it!


Ella's Party

While some of my family was here we decided we would celebrate Ella's Birthday, even though it was a week late! She doesn't know the difference anyways! She was funny opening her gifts she didn't get it!
My kind of girl she got excited for new clothes!
Her first doll! This is her baby so she has her own and I have mine!

She loved the gifts she had to take out of bags, she loves to empty anyone and every ones purses and bags!

Her facial expressions are so sweet!





Her impromptu cake!

We haven't learned how to blow yet!
She is still deciding weather or not to touch

We have taught her to be to clean so once she got it on herself she wasn't sure about it!


It didn't take her long to be done, then again this was at 10 at night and she was so tired and ready for bed!
We tried again the next day with the cake and she loved it! She had it everywhere, she was so sticky!

He weighed in at 6 lbs 4 oz and 21 in!
His head was 33 1/2 cm
His head is shaped just like Ella's and he has a little bit of her same look but is very different!
He has a little bit of brown hair, he has his dad's long fingers and toes just like Ella!
We are so glad he is here!
Enjoy!!!
